Am A9        Am   A9   Am
He was born the same time as me
   A9          Am        A9 Am
To a small souled woman who died 23
F          C     Dm               Am    
Now you're here, they can't shove you back
F         C                       G
you go on living your life out of spite
Am A9        Am   A9   Am
And I'm waiting for jude the obscene

The good ones first so get back in the queue
You trawled your way through our grim school
I hear your crowing in my sleep, in my dreams
A great dark wave shivers over me.
I'm waiting for jude the obscene
Waiting for jude the obscene

--solo--

Boys with bashed in eyes line the roads
But the longest walk was the walk back home, alone
Now you're here, they can't shove you back
You go on living your life out of spite
And I'm waiting for jude the obscene
I'm waiting for jude the obscene
Waiting for jude the obscene
Waiting for jude the obscene
Waiting for jude the obscene
